gay skull posted:*nasal voice* ooh should I get the P4F650SE or the P4650DX motherboard for my sweet gaming rig? One has dual channel RAM and the other had triple buffer antialiasing and I'm gay and learn all this stupid bullshit nobody cares about just to play games And then can usually get a job in IT because you learn so much about computers. I'm not really seeing why this is a bad thing. I don't think I've ever met an IT person who didn't start out as a PC gamer.

Hobohemian posted:Maybe they don't like playing their video games in a dark room, alone, sitting in a chair with a hole cut in the seat and a sock tapped underneath. Or maybe some people aren't inconsiderate pricks who hog the TV in the living room so they can play games. Seriously, no one wants to watch you play video games.

Blazing Zero posted:what's it like to not be a normal adult who can distinguish the difference between times to play singleplayer games, times to play multiplayers and times to not play games? Except no one ever wants to see or hear another person playing games. In a separate room, wearing headphones, on a PC is the way to go if you're not an inconsiderate douchebag. It's the entertainment equivalent of jacking off in front of other people. No one wants to see or hear it. Also having consoles in the living room as an adult makes you look like a pathetic manchild.

Airborne Viking posted:Fo reals. I don't even remember the last time I had a compatibility issue. Pretty much this. PC games these days tend to just work. PC hardware is super powerful compared to consoles and even midrange stuff will often max out games. And Steam is cheap as hell. We pay like 1/6 what console gamers pay for their games. It's like the people typing some of this poo poo haven't experience PC gaming in like 10-15 years. Dick Fagballzson fucked around with this message at 17:38 on Mar 22, 2015 |

Waltzing Along posted:Because console gaming is a better experience. FPSs which are all the rage on consoles right now suck donkey dong with a controller. They're basically uncontrollable without tons of autoaim. They control flawlessly with a keyboard and mouse. Also no strategy games on consoles. Some of us enjoy games that actually make us think, and don't just want to watch stupid movie type games that are barely interactive, which is most of what you have on consoles because you can't actually control anything with a controller.

Real hurthling! posted:oh man i guess the billions of hours of fun people had with console fps's over the last 15 years were fake and all the money they spend every year on them isn't real. Casuals playing casual FPSs. They wouldn't last two seconds in COunter-Strike or anything real. You probably also think people who play Candy Crush are real gamers.

Waltzing Along posted:Moving and aiming with two analog sticks is actually MUCH easier than with a mouse/keyboard. How? Shooters are all about precise aim. Moving a mouse with your whole arm and hand is much closer to aiming a gun than twiddling your thumb around.

mind the walrus posted:They are, and the more loser nerds like us act like exclusionary assholes because we don't like them as people the worse we'll be in the long run. It's like saying both Forumla One drivers and women who drive minivans are the same thing. They aren't. And I doubt the women driving minivans would even refer to themselves as drivers.

Mumpy Puffinz posted:are you for real? I can't tell I'm dead serious. I'm tired of casuals and their lovely consoles ruining my once great hobby. PC games from the late 90's were massively better than anything now in all ways other than graphics. Gaming has gone down the tubes thanks to casual loving idiots. It seems like some developers want to try to recapture that PC golden age magic, Bioshock Infinite being a good example. But it's hard when you have to contend with the mouth breathers with their thumbsticks. Half-Life, Homeworld, Total Annhilation, Deus Ex, Freespace 2, and System Shock 2 poo poo all over all recent games. And we have casuals diluting the hobby to thank for that.

The Whole Internet posted:Imo the current generation of consoles is poop, and I'd be claiming pc supremacy but steam and all similar distros are also poop. True. But when there's a dry spell PCs can do a million other things. Consoles are useless dust collecting poo poo bricks without good games.

I beat the first boss on the first try. It was actually the lousy graphics and lack of a story that put me off. The standards of quality are very low on the consoles if people consider that good.

Waltzing Along posted:I like how he uses Bioshock Infinite as an example of a good game. I gave examples of games I think are great. What games do you like that are so much better than System Shock 2 or Half-Life or Deus Ex? Bioshock Infinite was great. Probably the only game I've really liked in the last few years other than Deus Ex Human Revolution and Shadow of Mordor.
